Turner syndrome occurs in between one in 2,000 [4] and one in 5,000 females at birth. [5] All regions of the world and cultures are affected about equally. [10] Generally people with Turner syndrome have a shorter life expectancy, mostly due to heart problems and diabetes. [7] American endocrinologist Henry Turner first described the condition ...
It is the second-most common condition due to a third chromosome at birth, after Down syndrome for a third chromosome 21. [4] Trisomy 18 occurs in around 1 in 5,000 live births. [3] Many of those affected die before birth. [3] Some studies suggest that more babies that survive to birth are female. [2] Survival beyond a year of life is around 5 ...

This syndrome can begin with severe shoulder or arm pain followed by weakness and numbness. [5] Those with Parsonage–Turner experience acute, sudden-onset pain radiating from the shoulder to the upper arm. Affected muscles become weak and atrophied, and in advanced cases, paralyzed.

Karyotype of a human with Trisomy 21 (Down syndrome). Trisomies can occur with any chromosome, but often result in miscarriage rather than live birth.For example, Trisomy 16 is most common in human pregnancies, occurring in more than 1%, but the only surviving embryos are those having some normal cells in addition to the trisomic cells (mosaic trisomy 16). [3]
Almost all women with regular Turner syndrome are sterile, but those with 47,XXX cell lines are typically fertile. [29] Although women with trisomy X have lower IQs than the general population and women with Turner syndrome do not, intellectual disability does not appear to be more common in the mosaic than for non-mosaic Turner's.
